Denver Nuggets are not done with putting together a roster that can compete in stacked West. Nuggets’ president of basketball operations Tim Connelly announced on Tuesday that the team signed guard PJ Dozier to a deal.

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Dozier, who spent the last season with Boston Celtics, inked a one-year contract with the organization.
